I don't really get to see the effect of his postage calculator since I live 4 miles from him. He is a decent guy and if you have a real interest, send him a message. Maybe he doesn't know the impact of his calculation conditions he used in his listing. Other than helping to spreading the word, I don't get involved with his stuff.YT wrote:Wow your friend is gouging on postage!
As for listing title, I have tried to help him with that in the past, but in the end he calls it the way he wants it. That is also, why I posted here. I knew that his titles are not the best and I wanted to give a member here a better shot finding this.

I do a lot of selling on ebay and I can tell you without hesitation that the price he is chargeing for priority mail shipping on an item of that size and weight is NOT gouging, not even close, as a matter of fact it's very reasonable for Priority, and frankly you'd be hard pressed to ship it by Parcel Post for much less than that amount, depending on where it was going.

You could ship it anywhere in the country by Parcel Post for about half that.If they are charging $30 to ship something this size a over few states parcel post, then things are even worse than I knew with USPS...
